"All Trades Plumbing and Construction saved the day! We were mid project on two bathroom remodels when sadly our existing plumbers business folded. All Trades Plumbing was highly recommended to me from a friend and for a good reason! great communication, turn up when stated, outstanding quality of work and a follow up service like no other. Both bathrooms were finished to perfection. They also found time to install a new water heater and a full house filtration system. The quality of the plumbing was just outstanding. Being a contractor for 20 years i know good work/service when I see it. Definitely the best at what they do and top of their game. I Can’t say enough good things about them."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

Tipping is not required when hiring plumbing professionals. The rate provided in your plumbing quote is intended to cover all of the labor required to get the job done. However, you may consider tipping any extra hands hired to help with cleanup, haul away old fixtures, or repair drywall that was affected by the project.

You’ll need two sizes of pipe to plumb a bathroom. You’ll use a 1/2-inch pressure pipe for your supply lines that run from the fixture to the larger 3/4-inch supply lines that run through the house. For drain lines, you’ll need a 3-inch PVC pipe for your toilet, a 2-inch PVC pipe for stand-alone showers, and a 1 1/2-inch pipe for a shower/tub combo and the bathroom sink. Each fixture’s drain will run to the 3-inch main drain that runs through the house.

Worn-out rubber washers or O-rings are some of the most common causes of a leaky tub faucet. These small rubber parts create watertight seals within the faucet. However, they can deteriorate over time because of mineral deposits and water pressure. If you have a cartridge-style faucet, a cracked or damaged cartridge can also be the culprit. Regular use of the handles wears down these faucet parts, and they eventually start allowing water to seep through and create a drip.

There are nearly as many handles for your outdoor faucet as there are for your indoor faucets. Just a few include:

  • Hose bibb tee handle: about $8–$30

  • Better grip outdoor faucet handle: $20 on average

  • Round wheel handle: $6–$22

  • Turn hose bibb handle: about $15

  • Decorative handle: range from $15 to over $100

While a leak may seem small, even a gentle trickle of consistent moisture can lead to mold problems in your bathroom. Make sure you know how to check for mold if your toilet has been leaking for a while. Pooling water by your toilet also poses a risk for someone slipping on the slick floor of your bathroom. Finally, a leak of any size can lead to water waste that increases your water bill.
